I can only echo every word Ellis said above. Coincidentally Steve Spencer has my C5 as I write this. I spent some time with Steve yesterday at his bench while he worked on my C5 and was absolutely floored by his expertise.
I had the car in for two minor things, Steering Column recall and the car was throwing an 0410 code.
Well, Steve found a few other things and repaired them too. The other things Steve found I had no clue about BUT he showed me the faulty parts. I know there is no other tech anywhere that would have found these things or even thought to look for them.

I know what some might think............... sure he'll find other things to run my bill up.
Ain't that way. Everything he found was fixed under warranty and everything he found was legit, no matter who was paying the tab.

Steve Spencer is at the top of the class as far as Corvette Techs are concerned and Steve is at the top of his game.
He's the best, no 2 ways about it.

You guys are going to give Steve a Big Head. Besides being an ACE mechanic he is a nice guy and always takes the time to explain what is going on with your car. If there is something I don't want to tackle on my car he is the one of the few in our area who I trust. Better order a bigger hat Steve.

Never too late to chime in with my praise & respect for Steve.I can't imagine owning a C5 in an area that doesn't have someone
with his expertise,knowledge,and willingness to help out.All the
dealer service,outside tuner nightmares that people relate on the
forum are not a problem for us.When Steve was out last year for several months with a street hockey related knee injury,we all
held our breath that our cars would not need any work during
that period.

After reading so many negatives about service on the Forum we should consider ourselves extremely lucky to have two pleasant and knowledgeable people looking after our cars and ourselves. Both Steves' are the best ... I can't imagine having to go some where else for service... Bryner is the BEST!!!!

That makes no difference at all Norm. I didn't buy mine there either and they treat me great with courtesy and top notch service every time I'm there.

A Dealers Service Department does not care if you bought the car at their shop or not. The measly $$ they make on selling a car is chump change in comparision. It's the service that keeps those dealers going and brings in the big $$.
A dealer is happy as hell when you bring your car to them, no matter where you bought it.

That is an old myth that people think they can't take their cars to any dealer except where they bought it.

Take it to Bryner next time.
............and as Ellis would say "Trust me on this one "

I TOO HAVE RECENTLY SWITCHED TO BRYNER FOR SERVICE AND DID NOT PURCHASE MY VEHICLE THERE. STEVE SPENCER IS NOT ONLY A GREAT TECH BUT IS ALSO AN EXTREMELY NICE PERSON. IT IS A PLEASURE TO DEAL WITH A TRUE PROFESSIONAL WHEN IT COMES TO MY VETTE. NO MATTER WHAT I ASKED HIM, HE SEEMED TO KNOW THE ANSWER WITHOUT SECOND GUESSING HIMSELF. I LEFT THERE COMPLETELY SATISFIED WITH THE SERVICE AND TECHNICIAN. THIS IS SOMETHING I WAS NOT USED TO.
